Victimhood Is More Dangerous Than Trauma | ft. Helen Malinowski
Most men won't go near the word therapy. But what if the version you've been picturing doesn't exist in this conversation? Jerry Brazie sits down with Helen Malinowski — a licensed clinical social worker, somatic experiencing practitioner, and founder of both Keros Counseling (a 24-clinician group practice in Massachusetts) and the Somatic Integration Institute — for one of the most honest conversations about stress, burnout, resilience, and the body-mind connection you'll find anywhere. This isn't about coping mechanisms or crying on a couch. This is about understanding why the body keeps score long after the mind moves on — and what that has to do with how you perform in business, at home, and in every room you walk into. Jerry and Helen go deep on: Why avoiding stress is more dangerous than stress itself The real physiological definition of trauma — and why the word gets thrown around so loosely it's lost all meaning Self-efficacy as the hidden driver of resilience (and why Jerry's story proves it) Jerry's personal story: getting robbed and beaten at 14, the voice that changed everything, and the framework that built his life How physical discipline and the body-mind connection directly impact your performance as an operator What somatic therapy actually is — and why it's the approach men will be far more willing to try The difference between stress that builds you and stress that breaks you down at a nervous system level The epidemic of isolation and how community (a real tribe, not followers) changes the game Jerry also shares his own transformation — 310 pounds, a 25-year opioid addiction, a heart blockage, and a January 2022 decision to rebuild from scratch. 100 lbs down in 8.5 months. No excuses. Just accountability. Helen's book: Coming Back to Yourself is coming soon.
